Ireland

True but with 3 riders they're going to be wheelsuckers!

Kwiatkowski will win this.

Yes, you did type that, then you typed this as well:



So, Kelly "knows his stuff" and the women are talking "drivel".

Apologies for being a little glib.

What I meant to say was that Sean Kelly knows his stuff about the men's racing season and personalities in the peloton etc.

The women were talking about women's racing, mountain biking and cross. Not exactly what I had tuned into the men's road race for...

I shouldn't have said drivel, but was a little frustrated that they were just ignoring the race, it was like being back with Duffers...

Fab C and Sagan may think he can attack á la Armitstead and stay away near the end

To be fair to Zimmers - it was dull chit chat.

I heard that Nibali was going to need a skin graft on the injury he got a while back and he has since landed on it twice since. Ouch

Ours is hardly any better...

Apart from Ligett's hilarious tale of riding with Jens Voigt of course. Gripping stuff

Mine is, it's just you're usually too pissed to keep up

No Liggett on BBC2?

No Liggett on BBC2?

Bloody hell - you could have told me earlier!!!

 

[zimzum42]

I've switched to BBC2 now and have the web feed on a second screen in case they cut to yachting or something.

The commentary on BBC2 is much better...

 

[tug benson]

groups all over the place now.

I just switched over, and was asking for clarification as I was astounded. I had thought it might be a trick and we got a few minutes of decent commentary and then Phil walked in and shoved them off the chair

Simon Brotherton is a bit earnest but pretty good. Rob Hayles is intelligent with a dull delivery
